My daughter Atieno has been accepted for treatment at Arusha Children's Hospital in Arusha, starting on Tuesday in February. We live 388 km away in a town in the north, and hotel costs would use up what we have set aside for the treatment itself.
We're looking for a room, granny flat or short-term rental within about 30 minutes of the hospital, for 6 weeks. Two of us would stay: Atieno and me. We can contribute $10 a week and cook for the household if you'd like.
Atieno will have some immune precautions, so a clean, smoke-free place would be ideal. A kitchen is a bonus. Thank you.
I never thought I'd be the one asking, and I'm grateful for every bit of support.

Hope things get better soon. Your post was clear and honest. Read this on the bus and kept thinking about it all day. Love from Bhopal.
Stay strong. Hope the treatment goes smoothly and recovery is quick. I went through something like this 5 years ago and strangers helped me out
You're not alone, Tumusiime. Hope you get there. Don't be hard on yourself for asking. Greetings from Mysuru.
Stay strong, Tumusiime. Shared it with a few friends. Please keep us posted. Love from San Diego
Take care. Hope you get there. The breakdown of costs made it easy to trust. God bless.
